Testimonial for Joanna Guzman
My experience with Joanna was wonderful. I am a second time mom who was looking for day of support and care for my first unmedicated birth. Throughout the pregnancy Joanna provided helpful insight on ways to get comfortable in my body, exercise and stretch in ways to have baby in the optimal positioning, and methods on how to naturally soften many cervix and prep my body labor. Day of our birth things moved very quickly - and she made changes alongside us as things progressed. During my prenatal we spoke about the different methods of pain management but we didn't get to use many at all. But during birth she was calmly supportive in the only pain management that I needed to get through the surges, which was counter pressure. Joanna helped provide that counter pressure with each one so that my husband could be in a position that was comforting and helpful for me. In the last stage of labor along with the midwives, she stayed by my side and provided supportive words as I pushed. In between contractions she captured some really great pictures - which we deeply appreciate. Overall, my experience with Joanna was great, supportive, and so helpful throughout!
